its second pass over the table. It has to start at block zero, else the
"merge join" logic for detecting which TIDs are already in the index
doesn't work. Hence, extend heapam.c's API so that callers can enable or
disable syncscan. (I put in an option to disable buffer access strategy,
too, just in case somebody needs it.) Per report from Hannes Dorbath.

Therefore we must xmlCleanupParser(), or we risk leaving behind
dangling pointers to whatever memory context is current when xml_init()
is called. This seems to fix bug #3860, though we might still want
the more invasive solution being worked on by Alvaro.

constraint yields TRUE for every row of its table, only that it does not
yield FALSE (a NULL result isn't disallowed). This breaks a couple of
implications that would be true in two-valued logic. I had put in one such
mistake in an 8.2.5 patch: foo IS NULL doesn't refute a strict operator
on foo. But there was another in the original 8.2 release: NOT foo doesn't
refute an expression whose truth would imply the truth of foo.
Per report from Rajesh Kumar Mallah.
To preserve the ability to do constraint exclusion with one partition
holding NULL values, extend relation_excluded_by_constraints() to check
for attnotnull flags, and add col IS NOT NULL expressions to the set of
constraints we hope to refute.

for unhandled clause types ought to be 0.5, not 1.0. I fear I introduced
this silliness due to misreading the intent of the very-poorly-structured
code that was there when we inherited the file from Berkeley. The lack
of sanity in this behavior was exposed by an example from Sim Zacks.
(Arguably this is a bug fix and should be back-patched, but I'm a bit
hesitant to introduce a possible planner behavior change in the back
branches; it might detune queries that worked acceptably in the past.)
While at it, make estimation for DistinctExpr do something marginally
realistic, rather than just defaulting.

clauseless joins of relations that have unexploited join clauses. Rather
than looking at every other base relation in the query, the correct thing is
to examine the other relations in the "initial_rels" list of the current
make_rel_from_joinlist() invocation, because those are what we actually have
the ability to join against. This might be a subset of the whole query in
cases where join_collapse_limit or from_collapse_limit or full joins have
prevented merging the whole query into a single join problem. This is a bit
untidy because we have to pass those rels down through a new PlannerInfo
field, but it's necessary. Per bug #3865 from Oleg Kharin.

finish archiving everything (when there's no error), and to eliminate various
hazards as best we can. This fixes a previous 8.3 patch that caused the
postmaster to kill and then restart the archiver during shutdown (!?).
The new behavior is that the archiver is allowed to run unmolested until
the bgwriter has exited; then it is sent SIGUSR2 to tell it to do a final
archiving cycle and quit. We only SIGQUIT the archiver if we want a panic
stop; this is important since SIGQUIT will also be sent to any active
archive_command. The postmaster also now doesn't SIGQUIT the stats collector
until the bgwriter is done, since the bgwriter can send stats messages in 8.3.
The postmaster will not exit until both the archiver and stats collector are
gone; this provides some defense (not too bulletproof) against conflicting
archiver or stats collector processes being started by a new postmaster
instance. We continue the prior practice that the archiver will check
for postmaster death immediately before issuing any archive_command; that
gives some additional protection against conflicting archivers.
Also, modify the archiver process to notice SIGTERM and refuse to issue any
more archive commands if it gets it. The postmaster doesn't ever send it
SIGTERM; we assume that any such signal came from init and is a notice of
impending whole-system shutdown. In this situation it seems imprudent to try
to start new archive commands --- if they aren't extremely quick they're
likely to get SIGKILL'd by init.
All per discussion.

of poorer planning in 8.3 than 8.2:
1. After pushing a constant across an outer join --- ie, given
"a LEFT JOIN b ON (a.x = b.y) WHERE a.x = 42", we can deduce that b.y is
sort of equal to 42, in the sense that we needn't fetch any b rows where
it isn't 42 --- loop to see if any additional deductions can be made.
Previous releases did that by recursing, but I had mistakenly thought that
this was no longer necessary given the EquivalenceClass machinery.
2. Allow pushing constants across outer join conditions even if the
condition is outerjoin_delayed due to a lower outer join. This is safe
as long as the condition is strict and we re-test it at the upper join.
3. Keep the outer-join clause even if we successfully push a constant
across it. This is *necessary* in the outerjoin_delayed case, but
even in the simple case, it seems better to do this to ensure that the
join search order heuristics will consider the join as reasonable to
make. Mark such a clause as having selectivity 1.0, though, since it's
not going to eliminate very many rows after application of the constant
condition.
4. Tweak have_relevant_eclass_joinclause to report that two relations
are joinable when they have vars that are equated to the same constant.
We won't actually generate any joinclause from such an EquivalenceClass,
but again it seems that in such a case it's a good idea to consider
the join as worth costing out.
5. Fix a bug in select_mergejoin_clauses that was exposed by these
changes: we have to reject candidate mergejoin clauses if either side was
equated to a constant, because we can't construct a canonical pathkey list
for such a clause. This is an implementation restriction that might be
worth fixing someday, but it doesn't seem critical to get it done for 8.3.

constant ORDER/GROUP BY entries properly:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2001-04/msg00457.php
The original solution to that was in fact no good, as demonstrated by
today's report from Martin Pitt:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2008-01/msg00027.php
We can't use the column-number-reference format for a constant that is
a resjunk targetlist entry, a case that was unfortunately not thought of
in the original discussion. What we can do instead (which did not work
at the time, but does work in 7.3 and up) is to emit the constant with
explicit ::typename decoration, even if it otherwise wouldn't need it.
This is sufficient to keep the parser from thinking it's a column number
reference, and indeed is probably what the user must have done to get
such a thing into the querytree in the first place.

and CLUSTER) execute as the table owner rather than the calling user, using
the same privilege-switching mechanism already used for SECURITY DEFINER
functions. The purpose of this change is to ensure that user-defined
functions used in index definitions cannot acquire the privileges of a
superuser account that is performing routine maintenance. While a function
used in an index is supposed to be IMMUTABLE and thus not able to do anything
very interesting, there are several easy ways around that restriction; and
even if we could plug them all, there would remain a risk of reading sensitive
information and broadcasting it through a covert channel such as CPU usage.
To prevent bypassing this security measure, execution of SET SESSION
AUTHORIZATION and SET ROLE is now forbidden within a SECURITY DEFINER context.

are shared with Tcl, since it's their code to begin with, and the patches
have been copied from Tcl 8.5.0. Problems:
CVE-2007-4769: Inadequate check on the range of backref numbers allows
crash due to out-of-bounds read.
CVE-2007-4772: Infinite loop in regex optimizer for pattern '($|^)*'.
CVE-2007-6067: Very slow optimizer cleanup for regex with a large NFA
representation, as well as crash if we encounter an out-of-memory condition
during NFA construction.
Part of the response to CVE-2007-6067 is to put a limit on the number of
states in the NFA representation of a regex. This seems needed even though
the within-the-code problems have been corrected, since otherwise the code
could try to use very large amounts of memory for a suitably-crafted regex,
leading to potential DOS by driving the system into swap, activating a kernel
OOM killer, etc.
Although there are certainly plenty of ways to drive the system into effective
DOS with poorly-written SQL queries, these problems seem worth treating as
security issues because many applications might accept regex search patterns
from untrustworthy sources.
Thanks to Will Drewry of Google for reporting these problems. Patches by Will
Drewry and Tom Lane.

in the current backend for the target table. These operations move tuples
around and would thus invalidate the TIDs stored in the trigger event records.
(We need not worry about events in other backends, since acquiring exclusive
lock should be enough to ensure there aren't any.) It might be sufficient
to forbid only the table-rewriting variants of ALTER TABLE, but in the absence
of any compelling use-case, let's just be safe and simple. Per follow-on
investigation of bug #3847, though this is not actually the same problem
reported therein.
Possibly this should be back-patched, but since the case has never been
reported from the field, I didn't bother.

since these seem to happen after all in corrupted indexes. Make sure we
supply the index name in all cases, and provide relevant block numbers where
available. Also consistently identify the index name as such.

problem.

were reporting ERROR for interactive assignments and LOG for other cases,
some were saying nothing for non-interactive cases, and a few did yet other
things. Make them use a new function GUC_complaint_elevel() to establish
a reasonably uniform policy about how to report. There are still a few
edge cases such as assign_search_path(), but it's much better than before.
Per gripe from Devrim Gunduz and subsequent discussion.
As noted by Alvaro, it'd be better to fold these custom messages into the
standard "invalid parameter value" complaint from guc.c, perhaps as the DETAIL
field. However that will require more redesign than seems prudent for 8.3.
This is a relatively safe, low-impact change that we can afford to risk now.

COPY. We need a restriction here because when the delimiter occurs as a
data character, it is emitted with a backslash, and that will only work
as desired if CopyReadAttributesText() will interpret the backslash sequence
as representing the second character literally. This is currently untrue
for 'b', 'f', 'n', 'r', 't', 'v', 'x', and octal digits. For future-proofing
and simplicity of explanation, it seems best to disallow a-z and 0-9.
We must also disallow dot, since "\." by itself would look like copy EOF.
Note: "\N" is by default the null print string, so N would also cause a
problem, but that is already tested for.

print the index key variable or expression for that column. It was mistakenly
printing ASC/DESC/NULLS FIRST/NULLS LAST decoration too --- and not only for
the target column, but all columns. Someday we should have an option to

column ... but today is not that day. Per bug #3829 and subsequent

The zero-point case is sensible so far as the data structure is concerned,
so maybe we ought to allow it sometime; but right now the textual input

the two join variables at both ends: not only trailing rows that need not be
scanned because there cannot be a match on the other side, but initial rows
that will be scanned without possibly having a match. This allows a more
realistic estimate of startup cost to be made, per recent pgsql-performance
discussion. In passing, fix a couple of bugs that had crept into
mergejoinscansel: it was not quite up to speed for the task of estimating
descending-order scans, which is a new requirement in 8.3.

namely that \r, \n, \t, \b, \f, \v are dumped as those two-character
representations rather than a backslash and the literal control character.
I had made it do the other to save some code, but this was ill-advised,
because dump files in which these characters appear literally are prone to
newline mangling. Fortunately, doing it the old way should only cost a few
more lines of code, and not slow down the copy loop materially.

but no database changes have been made since the last CommandCounterIncrement.
This should result in a significant improvement in the number of "commands"
that can typically be performed within a transaction before hitting the 2^32
CommandId size limit. In particular this buys back (and more) the possible
adverse consequences of my previous patch to fix plan caching behavior.
The implementation requires tracking whether the current CommandCounter
value has been "used" to mark any tuples. CommandCounter values stored into
snapshots are presumed not to be used for this purpose. This requires some
small executor changes, since the executor used to conflate the curcid of
the snapshot it was using with the command ID to mark output tuples with.
Separating these concepts allows some small simplifications in executor APIs.
Something for the TODO list: look into having CommandCounterIncrement not do
AcceptInvalidationMessages. It seems fairly bogus to be doing it there,
but exactly where to do it instead isn't clear, and I'm disinclined to mess
with asynchronous behavior during late beta.

had been absorbed. Per report from Chris Wood.
This patch has an unpleasant side effect of causing the number of
CommandCounterIncrement()s done by a typical plpgsql function to
approximately double. Amelioration of the consequences of that
will be undertaken in a separate patch.
